Former WWE Talent Being Offered Full-Time Deals to Return

– As has been reported over the past week, WWE has been calling several former stars in order to fill the roster leading into the WWE Draft and Brand Split. The WON reports that the expectation for the new talent is that they’ll be used as the Dudley Boyz are as notable names who can be on TV and live shows and who will put over the NXT guys as they come up. PWINsider (via Wrestling Inc) reports that the returns will be full-time returns, with most of the deals offered being for two to three years.

The NXT roster will need to be replenished due to the expected call ups to the main roster following the Brand Split. The WON notes that of Shinsuke Nakamura, Austin Aries, Samoa Joe, Finn Balor, Bayley, Asuka, Bobby Roode, Jason Jordan, Chad Gable and The Revival, “many of those names will be on the main roster shortly.”
